Comments

Whatever happened to The Italian Fisherman? We absolutely loved that restaurant! The food there was authentic Italian. A lot of restaurants say they’re Italian but the taste isn’t true Italian. This place had the true taste. We love their salad – yummy with delicious garlic flavors. I ate my first steamed clams there and fell in love with them. It always seemed to be busy. Now, this was back in the mid- to late-eighties, I believe. Have any other “Italian” restaurants opened up; are they as great at the Italian Fisherman? He knew how to cook, truly!!! Wonder where they went to.
Thank you for your help.

Linda, I believe the Italian Fisherman closed in 1997 or 98. It was a great restaurant. I am not sure about what happened to the owners or cooks there. There is an Italian Restaurant called La Cucina that has opened up in Sunset Beach, I’d recommend it if you’re back in town. Also, closer to Ocean Isle Beach, Roberto’s Ristorante is also very good!
